The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on the APS Bomet manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

The visitors have scored 6 goals from 7 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as APS Bomet have conceded 11 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
